My husband and I experienced our first miscarriage this past January and was devastating. But after taking so ppl I felt better and we both decided to wait to try again LATER in the year. We wanted to eat better and try to loose weight. About 3 weeks ago we had sex and well I’m feeling the same way as with our last pregnancy. I’ve had the cramping/bloating feeling. My boobs already feel fuller and heavier. I haven’t told my husband yet that I think I’m pregnant. I probably won’t find out for sure until another week. I started taking prenatals and have pregnancy tests ready to go. I want to get excited but my fear of having another miscarriage really scares me. And on top of it all, we were originally due by the end of this month. I’m super emo, and cried last night. Might be the hormones taking already, but I can’t seem to get excited yet and want to wait until I test positive before I tell my SO. Anyone been here before? Any thoughts?

The fear of miscarriage is greater than it has ever been now. My first 12weeks of my last pregnancy I had no fear, no understanding of miscarriage fear as I had no experience.

Now it’s all I think about. I’m 6weeks today but should be 8.. going for a rescan in 2 weeks hopefully I got my dates wrong, if not... it’s another miscarriage.

At the end of the day the way I see it is the fear is always going to be there and it’s going to get worse,. But if you do miscarry again there is nothing you can do to prevent and it is not your fault, it simply wasn’t right. Pick yourself back up after having time to grieve and focus on making the baby you so strongly desire. I see it as the fear all being worth it once we have our rainbow babies in our hands..

oh and then a whole new fear shall begin!

We are statistically less likely to miscarry after a miscarriage and the odds of having a healthy pregnancy are much greater after a MC.

I have learnt that each pregnancy is completely different, so don’t compare from the previous you will worry sick. I’m to the point now I’ve researched for countless hours, sat up all night stressing, crying, googling and now I’m so exhausted with my own mind I’ve actually kind of made peace with it. What will be will be! Be kind to yourself! GL. Xxx

I am in the same boat! We MC #2 in Jan and then had a chemical in Feb. just got a + Friday that was faint and now I just got one that was darker. I am so scared. We are happy and excited but I don’t feel like we are as excited as we were when we found out w our first pregnancy that was a success. Until we get the confirmation and see it on ultrasound we will be a nervous wreck. Hang in there girl you aren’t alone ♥️
